As far as I can tell, only one NBA athlete has worn the number 48. And they only wore it for one season. The least popular jersey number to date. You want to own a jersey number, Mr. NBA athlete? Wear number 48 for a few years. Doesn't seem like that bad of a number to me.

Anyway, Walt Gilmore wore jersey number 48 in 1971 for the Portland Trail Blazers. The 25th overall selection in the 1970 NBA draft out of Fort Valley State scored 58 points in 27 NBA games played.
